Those guys took lots of engineering classes and may have even graduated but couldn't get real jobs so they are designing toy cars and doing a stellarly mediocre job at it.
Wow those are some harsh comments....... Every rc especially when its almost a completely new design from almost the ground up is going to have issue's...... If you expected it to be perfect out of the box then they probably wouldn't of been released until next year if that...... As far as the so-called stoner dropouts that designed it, they did a pretty damn good job considering they took an off-road vehicle and put a drivebelt instead of shaft that actually works very well...... Also the steering assembly even though can be a pain to change at first, but IMO was really designed well........ I'm sure AE is aware of these issue's and will design a way to resolve them, but hey their only human so if it takes them time then its understandable....... I'm even hoping that a factory team version comes out in the near future (doubt it will be anytime soon though), but if they do I will def. be buying one as well as keeping the sc10 I have now..........
